Bill Lasseter

Farewell our Good friend you will be greatly missed by all who knew you. You were a trooper right till the end, with the endless support of your wife Barbara. We will all carry a fond memory of you Bill RIP dear friend. Barbara and family please accept Ken's and my deepest condolences.

A wonderful man and football coach who, along with some other ex-B.C. Lions, gave back to amateur football by coaching the Vancouver Meralomas Junior Football teams for free in the early 1970's leading them to many B.C. championships and one Western Canadian Championship. A gentleman and good man, he was a mentor to many of us. Forever grateful Coach Bill!

Bill was my highschool sweetheart, but unfortunately he was more interested in football than he was in me! When I was about 15, I bought tickets to a B.C. Lion's football game and told Bill that my aunt had given them to me -- and so I had my much-longed-for date. Later in life, I reconnected with Bill and our other highschool buddies. He was a kind, lovely man (in addition to being a "hunk") and did not deserve to suffer from Parkinson's Disease the way he did. The East End gang will miss him terribly. God bless Barb for her unstinting care and love.

We'd like to extend our deepest condolences to all your family. Your family and friends were blessed to have someone so special in your lives.
